I have known Adela Merna for 18 years as my personal trainer., nutritionist, therapeutic massage and general health advisor. I am now 80 years old and in excellent health due to her care and interest in my well being during the last 18 years. Her advice on nutrition has helped me to keep my weight in a healthy range. Nothing is too much trouble for her in relation to helping me recover from any muscle or other injuries in a short time usually. I play tennis 3 times a week and have gym training twice a week with her. She is also excellent in advising me as to what supplements are suitable for me and which products are the best. We also discuss other sometimes more private issues that may prevent good health and she is always approachable on any topic with excellent suggestions. In summary I honestly believe she has contributed to my current wellbeing in a considerable way to achieve a remarkably active third age for me.

I arrived at Adela’s with a rotator cuff ( RC) problem as well as muscle spasms. Adela made me feel relaxed straight away. She assessed my problem and then got to work with a pressure point massage to release blocked muscle paths and grumpy muscles that assist with overhead movement like trapezius. Her knowledge of the anatomy, together with health advice is second to none. I have been back to her to clear up my RC problem and am pleased to say, it all healed. She trained me and my husband in the gym for over 10 years. She taught us all principles of weight training and cardio. Every six weeks she would change our program to keep our training fresh and moving forward. I found her to be an excellent personal trainer. Very knowledgeable in the anatomy of training. She would go through each exercise to teach us perfect form. Showing us the muscles that you should be working whilst doing your training. I gained muscle, lost body fat and gained cardio fitness!! I am now able to train by myself because I know exactly how to perform my training program with proper form. She also teaches swimming!!

Thank you Adela, you are amazing!! I would definitely recommend Adela!!

I have known Adela for many years & have found her to be an excellent Personal Trainer, reliable & committed to her clients. I also find her remedial massages to be the best I have ever experienced. She is always willing to listen to any request made by her client. As I fall into the older generation & found her sensitive to my limitations. Adela is very knowledgeable in Nutrition & I found her advice extremely helpful.

Adela has trained me in the gym on and off over the past 17 years.
I have found her to be very knowledgeable regarding the human body both with exercises and nutrition.
She is also a caring person.
She encourages you to work as hard as you are capable of at any given time.

I have had many surgeries during this time.  Constant support, nutritional advice and changing the routines to what I can physically achieve to be as active as possible has been appreciated.
She is the epitome of regular exercising and good nutrition."

I have known Adela since 2003. She was my personal trainer at the gym that I joined after my second baby was born. I enjoyed training with Adela immensely and felt that she motivated me to train with an intensity that I can still maintain today. Since then, Adela has also taught me many things about family nutrition and nutrition for an athletic lifestyle, which is easy to integrate into a busy family environment. Adela has also developed a sport supplement regime which I have found easy to follow and stay compliant. We have also had some sessions of lymphatic massage which has assisted some lower limb swelling. I have always found Adela to be very upbeat and positive which I believe are very desirable characteristics for a nutritionist, personal trainer and remedial massage therapist. Her depth of knowledge is truly remarkable. I would recommend her without hesitation.
